The statement I made that was quoted above was:

"He was using the gas without payment and without any valid non-payment 
agreement. He was depriving its owner, whoever that was, permanently of it."

Is that what you mean or was it perhaps in my only other statement here 
where I said:

"The above are the *facts* of the situation as he himself described"?

In either case, what is 'just plain false' about it?

Oh, you mean something else I said somewhere else that I should have 
guessed without even a clue was what you meant?

You can't possibly know that at any time after he contacted the supply 
company.  And the length of time he continued to use the gas after that, 
without making any further attempt to pay, would indicate that he was 
perfectly happy with taking it for free for as long as he wasn't caught out.

I ask again since you have avoided answering before, how long is it 
acceptable for anyone in his position to continue using gas without 
paying for it?  Days, months, years, decades, what?

Really?  On what do you base that?

Has he paid up since?
